New Footage Shows Street Assault as Producer Files Complaint Against Maju Mantilla’s Husband

Authorities are evaluating a complaint supported by broadcast videos alleging a months‑long pattern of threats.

Overview

  • Security camera clips aired by América Hoy show a gray SUV striking a red vehicle before a man identified as Gustavo Salcedo exits and repeatedly attacks Christian Rodríguez in San Isidro.
  • Magaly TV later broadcast additional angles that track the approach, show erratic driving through a planter and a near‑miss with a pedestrian, and capture Salcedo leaving the scene.
  • The Sept. 26 incident occurred outside a law office while Rodríguez’s wife and child were present; he received head stitches and was kept under observation with a concussion and contusions, his lawyer said.
  • Rodríguez filed a criminal complaint as a police report details alleged harassment since March, including threatening messages saying he would be "filled with lead," and requests for protection measures.
  • Maju Mantilla condemned all violence, said Salcedo has not been violent toward her, and is seeking a conciliatory arrangement for their children, while Salcedo told media the attack was "bien merecido" and Día D reported the SUV is registered to Mantilla.
